Thanks guys, that is pretty much what I want. But what if I want to see
the changelog for a package that I don't have installed? I'd like to
look at the changelog for a package available via yum before I upgrade
my existing package to it. When I did a "rpm -q --changelog mypackage",
that only showed changes up to my currently installed version. (Which
makes sense if this is just looking on my local machine, which I assume
it is)
You can do this with repoquery, which is in the yum-utils package.
repoquery --changelog foo will show you the changelog for package foo
I did not find a "yum-utils" in CentOS 4... I guess maybe it's only in
CentOS 5?
I also did not find "yum-changelog" in CentOS 4... Are both of these
only in CentOS 5, or are my repositories / searches messed up?
